Work has been hectic and tough. And I only get to meet girlfriend once a week. Yes this is how demanding work life is. But I am glad both of us are able to compromise and understand. This is how we are special and different from others. We think for each other more than anything else. I have to even miss out on girlfriend's birthday (her first birthday with me..) because I have my sailings to do. And as much as I can do I asked for a friend's help to deliver roses to her house and I am glad she loves it.


Yesterday she celebrated my birthday with me (super advanced celebration because my birthday is on the 28th Nov..) because we might not have time the next two weeks due to my sailings and her work&dance. Nevertheless I love how she make the effort to specially made cupcakes for me, and got me my favourite Abercrombie sweater. Everyone knows I love sweaters hahahaha! :D

Yes I am very proud of my elder brother, and I will want to let everyone knows he is in HAVARD University now pursuing his Masters in Law. Well we gonna miss his presence in the house because he is gonna stay there for a year. And I think sis-in-law is quitting her job and going over to stay with him. Sweet much. :) Gf came to airport to send brother off too. Had a little photo session before he left!

One month may seem short to most, but it seems very long to me. In a good way I mean, because I feel like I know her for a long long time already. I love this feeling of warmth, care and concern. Let us be the one to spread the happiness. And our love shall blossomed through thicks and thins, smiles and tears, and our usual heart to heart talks.

I sing. She dance. I was hooked into her dazzling dance moves and she was mesmerised by my singing (I think so lah). We make a good combination and that's why we are who we are now. I love you baby. We did well for the performance and it's our first time performing on stage together. It's been a tough one month for you because you have to choreograph all the dance moves, and at the same time have to deal with the ridiculous demands from the management and our school (Seriously they are RUBBISH!). But all the rehearsals and hard work paid off.






*Anyway you guys can watch the video on our dance crew performance for Marine Parade GRC (Braddell Heights) National Day Celebration. Here's the link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gtZUB3c2RKw&feature=youtu.be

It's really been a hectic few weeks with all the duties, sailings, exams and dance rehearsals. I can hardly find time to sleep in late less those few days I took leave for dance rehearsals. And my feet was constantly giving me problems until recently it turned better. All these made me so depress and moody. Mood swing is very common and I am especially sensitive to people talking about me or trying to be funny.

Sorry love that she has to endure my "black" face occasionally and 'irritated' face when she just want to tease me. But really lah I must say, "I don't really really enjoy people touching my hair." Wahahahaha! Other than that, all is good. Even with her asking me to eat more greens, I WILL. And to pub and drink lesser, I DO. I love you and thanks for being a understanding gf who has to continuously endure my nonsense and bad-temper.  << 3

So it was pretty impromptu and through whatsapp Syimah invited us to her house cos her family prepared Nasi Lemak!! And well because I didn't manage to meet them up the previous day so decided to head down for a mini gathering. And we watched Olympics together.

Feng Tian Wei really put up a good fight and great effort I must say. Though I really really encourage more Singapore borned Singaporeans to play for Singapore, but well I can see they did their best. And through interviews you can hear that they really hope to win something for Singapore, not just for their own glory. Thumbs up! :D

We did some camwhoring of course, and mostly is Huda took photos for me, Syimah, Fik and Az. HAHAHAHA! The photos came out really really nice! Shall show it to you all. And it's taken using my S2 phone. Always love photoshoots. Hehe!





Enjoyed all the time spent with them. They share my woes/sorrows and happiness. They're of course happy for me being attached and I am glad to have them by my side as best friends. Irreplaceable. :))

It's been long. Friends say, "Wahhh FINALLY man!", "At last..!".. Yes I know. But usually it takes me longer than anyone would expect to want to try again. But I am glad I did. As the new journey starts, it's been one of the greatest thing that had ever happened.

It's the first competition, first finals, first trophy and first honour of being a Champion. It may not be a big scale singing competition but the amount of hard work I've put in, it's all worth it. And I made it. I came through in the Semi-Finals as the last contestant to be through to the Finals. And I told myself I will not disappoint myself again in the Finals, I did it. I proved my skills and capabilities, and made my Mum really proud. Thanks Brother and Sis-in-law for coming to support me!! Some contestants are even jealous that my whole family was down there to give me their fullest support. And that was the time I felt so blessed, I've such caring and supportive family. <3

Singing in me has began as a hobby. I sing since young, but never in front of anybody. I will sing together with the music from the CDs, or even LDs. Of cos when I am bathing, the echo effect is ever so AWESOME. Then I start to go to KTVs with friends and started to think of ways to improve myself. Ways like recording my singing and then listen to the flaws so I can touch up on the weaker points, or even ask friends for opinions. Another big step was to go to KTV pubs. I know lah it's not an ideal place to hang out, but as I was interacting and gathering with friends, I sang in front of crowds in the pub. I took a big step. Now I stood up on a stage, performed and enjoyed every moment. I did my best and I got what I wanted. I will never give up on this passion. It's already a part of me. :)

I didn't leave, I was just too busy. This is an excuse to most people, but deep inside I know it's the truth. I am sorry if I miss out a certain part of your life, but best friends.. I still think of you every now and then. And then I will start to blame myself for not making enough effort. But somehow for some I stop doing so, because they took the U-turn way before. Just remember, no matter what, I am still here. 


Time for some updates.

1. Family
Well last year my brother got married. The wedding was too grand I suppose. HAHA. Even I was kinda stress up, with all the VVIPs like Chief Justice from Supreme Court. But this also shows that my brother made it big and I am happy for him, in fact, very very proud of him.

My mum hasn't been in the best of health. We kept asking her to retire but she refused, because she doesn't want to stay home. I can understand this part because truthfully the house is as empty as it can get in the day. Everyone is working. Maybe I should get myself a dog, at least she has a companion. Or maybe brother and sis in law can erhemmm make a baby out. :p

2. Career
First month of 2012 marks a new beginning. I left the ship that I had been working onboard for 2 years. Those fun and tough times, we made it through. I must say I am proud to be a part of RSS FEARLESS. Another journey lies ahead of me. I am now on course, when I will take up higher appointment and responsibility when I return back to ship in May. It's a stay-in course so basically I am only going to book out every Friday evening. And this kinda life gonna stretch all the way to May - 14 weeks to be exact. But I believe it can do myself good, this course is really meaningful and I am sure I will be able to grow through this course.

3. Love
The cupid hasn't been aiming well for me. HAHA. True love, I have lost touch already. So many came, but so many go too. Well, it's like a cycle. And maybe it just isn't time for my cycle to stop. I wanna settle down, everyone knows. And I really don't feel like my standards for a girlfriend is high at all. I had enough flings and I ain't gonna play like how I used to in the past. What's best for me is definitely worth the wait. And I am waiting. :))


Sailor Boy,

OKAY I haven't update my blog in like AGES. Super guilty. Was really busy with all those sailings in Oct. And then admin work and events are piling non-stop on me in Nov, when this month is suppose to be the resting month for my ship. Sadly they didn't really care about giving us time off from the sailing months.

Well I shall skip all those small meetups, because I realised nowadays I always forget to take photos with my friends when I am out with them. Like totally cannot believe it, because the fact that I myself know I am a living proud-to-be camwhore. LOL.

Nevertheless, my 23rd birthday celebration at Sentosa Beach Resort Rooftop Suite was AWESOMEEEEE. Loves to all those whom I had invited, and came. Your presence sure made a difference. :)

There is so much more to just live everyday and get it over and done with. Time is never enough. And we actually can and have the ability to live to the fullest. Criticisms are inevitable. We shall learn and grow from it.
